After the Rains… some bright dry weather.

27th February 2026

Colder conditions last night affected the area with some light new snow falling mainly above 850 metres. It was a dry dry morning with the odd light shower in the afternoon. The freezing level fell to around 900 metres, winds were light to moderate from a Westerly direction.

The snow cover is much depleted after the few days of mild conditions and rain at most elevation. The photos below give a flavour of the area now some clear conditions allow.

Tomorrow the snowpack surface is likely to be firm and icy with serious consequences in the likelihood of a slip or a slide.
